I have a model nearly 10" x 31" that I wish to plot at full scale from
Layout named SwatchOnly to a 60" wide roll.
My plotter is HP5500 using version 2005 on Win2k. Instead of full scale the
Vertical distance of 9.65 became 3.23 on the paper. What am I doing wrong?

For what it's worth, Pspace was On.
Landscape orientation was correct.

The following were my layout settings:

Plot - SwatchOnly (name of layout)
Printer/Plotter: HP djet 5500 60x10.pc3
Paper size: Custom1: 31 x 9.7 in.
Roll: 60" roll
Quality: Maximum
Where: LPT1
What to Plot: Layout
Plot offset: x: 0.0 y: 0.0
Scale: 1:1
Inch = 1
Unit = 1
Plot options checked
Plot with plot styles
Plot paperspace last
Drawing orientation: Landscape
